A versatile Diels–Alder approach to functionalized hydroanthraquinones

The synthesis of highly substituted hydroanthraquinone derivatives with up to three stereogenic centres via a Diels–Alder reaction, starting from easily accessible 2-substituted naphthoquinones, is described. The [4+2]-cycloaddition is applicable for a broad range of substrates, runs under mild cond...
